WARNING

TIRES

This vehicle is equipped with tubeless tires.
WARNING
Halve service intervals when the vehicle
is used in rainy or dusty conditions, on
rough roads or for racing.
Check tire inflation at room temperature
at least once a week.
Check the conditions of the tires and
t h e i n f l a t i o n p r e s s u r e a t r o o m
temperature after the first 600 mi (1,000
km) and thereafter every 4,650 mi (7,500
km), see page 140 (TECHNICAL DATA).
Pressure measurement must always be
carried out when the tires are cold, as
when the tires are warmed up, pressure
will increase, and if they are checked at
this time erroneous readings will be
seen.
If the tire is overinflated (pressure is too
h i g h ) , t h e r e s u l t w i l l
uncomfortably harsh ride, and riding
comfort will be compromised. Also,
road holding, especially during turns
and in wet conditions, will likewise be
compromised.
If the tire is underinflated (pressure is
too low), the tire may slip on the rim
with consequent loss of control. Again,
r o a d h o l d i n g a n d
characteristics will be degraded, and
brake performance will be reduced.
